Wild to read how the US tax system works when you're used to the EU.

Maybe one day you'll also get automatic tax filling without lifting a finger.

Imagine having a political party that deliberately tries to make everything worse for the people in broad daylight. And you can't do shit about it, because you live in a two party system.

Yay. :)

That's typically the start of any big law change. It almost always come up a few times in various iterations before being decided.

And I'm sure it will give California some trouble if all neighbour states doesn't offer healthcare. So maybe it needs to come from the top?

Would anyone expect that they were anyway?

Even if you consider

  • sites getting bought up and rehosted elsewhere
  • sites changing names
  • personal throw-away WordPress sites
  • sites for educational purposes made by the students themselves
  • sites going bankrupt
  • news site, social media channels closing down

Can't see why this isn't very natural, and I'm actually surprised it's not higher if you consider how fast that field is moving.

And insurance, honestly.

That doesn't make any sense.

The US just accepts that money laundering is taking place, Denmark tries to do the opposite.

The US has no many problems, and this is also one of them. Imagine what "billions a day" could fix around the country.

I know it's not the point, and I don't really disagree to it either. You're right that they do have malicious intentions. I just swept it away, because they will be outnumbered. But it's still concerning and you are right to point it out.

I see your point in everything you say, but GMOs are not dangerous at all and makes crops use less water, makes them more nutritious, more resistant to pests (which means you don't need pesticides as much) and can even be used to let rice be richer in vitamin D, which is essential for some places in Asia.

Go after all the other things, no problem. But stop eating the GMO propaganda. Eat the GMO products instead.

This is part of the law to stop money laundering.

Denmark had issues in the past that pulled money out of Denmark with either cash or money transfers, and therefore banks have to document where big transfers come from.

So this is basically an unfortunate example on how this also hits innocent companies.

But Denmark had to stop it all together, because we are talking about billions being pulled from Denmark this way.
